Oceanographic Instruments

Oceanographic instruments are specialized tools used to study the ocean's physical, chemical, and biological properties. They help scientists measure things like water temperature, salinity, current speed, and the presence of marine life. Common instruments include buoys, which float on the surface, and underwater drones or submersibles, which explore deeper areas. These tools collect essential data to help us understand ocean health, climate change, and marine ecosystems, ultimately aiding in the conservation and sustainable management of ocean resources.
